Boston
Sunset over the Boston skyline looks best from the water, so I lined up the cruises that time it right. Departure times shift with the season, sailing earlier in October than in June, so check the schedule for your date. Rowes Wharf and Long Wharf are the usual launch points.
Board the Boston Harbor Sunset Cruise for an unforgettable evening filled with relaxation, history, and unexpected surprises waiting to be discovered.
